[ One more will hardly make a difference, yes, but then one becomes two, and then three, and so on. Kaeya is still present enough to keep his balance, but a few more drinks would rob him of that sense, and that is right at the top of Diluc's list of things to not deal with tonight. Just being here alone with Kaeya is...complicated enough. A reminder, yet again, of things undone, unspoken, unrealized.
He huffs yet another sigh, more belabored this time, though he does not protest Kaeya's offer. If that means he'll stop pestering him for drinks, so be it. ]
If you insist. Just don't break anything.
[ In the meantime, Diluc will continue to clean the glasses behind the bar, polishing away fingerprints, while watching Kaeya closely when he thinks the other man isn't looking. To make sure he isn't unsteady on his feet, in case he does need a hand after all. It gives him an excuse to watch him.
His wrist still tingles. From that simple, meaningless touch. Despite everything, he still hungers for that physical affection that once came so easily. Some things never change, never fade. ]
